I get back to the "Mighty M" about 6 times a year. Have friends and family living in Kiamesha Lake and Hurleyville. The small crowd who lines the track apron and small metal grandstand are pretty friendly. About 20 "regulars" sit in the simulcast room sipping coffee and touting horses. A lady with a hot dog stand serves some great dogs with sauerkraut and mustard. Most of the money bet is from the signal they send everywhere. On a sunny day the view of the mountains along old Route 17B is still beautiful. And after the races.....great Italian food at the old "Frankie & Johnnnys" in Hurleyville. It's now called "Casa Mia". One waitress watched me grow up going there with my family. She's been there over 50 years. Get the chicken parm. Nothing better! LOL!

I probably didn't list everyone on either list.

        Frank Drucker is making a triumphant return to Harness Racing by joining the Running Aces handicapping team for the coming meet.  After the Covid shutdown Yonkers didn’t bring Frank back , good luck to him at Running Aces

I may try Taj Mahal

A better question is:  name a track in 2026 with a good driving colony?
